Using seashells as containers

Gooding, ID(Zone 5a)

I planted some little ivy houseplants into three big seashells. I'm watching them carefully so that if they don't look like they like it, I can remove them quickly. So far so good. I didn't drill any drainage holes in them and there isn't much room for soil. It's just an experiment...

Has anybody else tried this? What did you learn?
